Intro:   Am    C     G     E    

      (4X)

Am     C        G          E   
Leaves fall         in the cool
        Am
 October air
          C          G           
Days grow short,           and I 
E             Am
can`t remember where
          C       G           
I saw you last,          turned 
   E                Am
against the summer light
        C       G              E 
Walking off,           on that 
           F
final August night.


                  Fm          C
I was there on my knees, all alone
Continues after the ad
        Am  D            Fm      
In a world where nothing ever 
       C
stays the same
     Am  D         Fm            
I am left with only things I 
   C
cannot change
       Am    D               Fm  
You`ve gone away and left me 
           C        C
things I cannot change

Am         C            G        
Smoke will rise             and a
 E          Am
 fire always burns
           C         G         
Sands will drift       and tides 
      E
will turn
                     Am          
And I can`t          wrestle with 
    C
the sea
    G                      E   
Rearrange the sky       or fight 
             Am       C
against the wind
    G               E         F  
Any more than I can bring you 
    Fm
back to me

      Am   D            Fm       
In a world where nothing ever 
      C
stays the same
     Am   D         Fm           
I am left with only things I 
   C
cannot change
       Am    D               Fm  
You`ve gone away and left me 
            C
things I cannot change
    Am    D             Fm       
So far away and left me things I 
       C
cannot change
